Guest wifi networks are standard on almost any router or modem. They are a way to isolate temporary wireless devices whom still require internet access from your main network where all of your personal devices may be connected too. Today we cover how to setup a guest wifi network and show you why it is a good idea to be using them!

I almost never comment on RU-vid instructional videos, but this one is exceptional. Very, very clear!

@SusanFlowers_ Год назад

You have a wonderful way of explaining things. You're so clear and everything is orderly and easy to connect and follow. And you do a really nice job of showing the steps taken and what we should be looking for. I know things are hard to show, they can be blurry sometimes, but you do a really nice job. Thank you.

@hermanmafo4599 Год назад

Great video. My question is can guest network prevents users from accessing internet as well?

@magnum164 8 месяцев назад

2 years old, but I just came across another video that linked here. I like the idea putting cameras on a guest wifi, but is there a way to allow access to a local NVR yet provide security? I have several PoE cameras for outside monitoring as well as App controlled cameras. After installing, while a remote chance my concern is now my PoE outside cameras provide a link directly to my local network. If you have a video link that describes how to secure those let me know. For now may be setting up another router just for camera/NVR access with limited connection.

Sir possible to enable the guest wifi and hide my main WiFi,, only guest showing and the WiFi search

@HelpCloud 2 года назад

Yes, you can disable the main network SSID. This will hide the main and still show the guest.

Question, so I have an ASUS router, and they have a dedicated tab for 'Guest Network' however in a separate tab called 'Wireless' I can also add multiple 2.4GHz networks. In this case, is it essentially doing the same thing? Or does the guest network have different properties such as the firewall you mentioned that would not be present in the 2.4Ghz netowork if I created another one via the 'Wireless' tab?

If the guest visits frequently will they automatically connect to the guest wifi.. if I want a once off connection would I need to reset the guest network setting ?

@popdogfool Год назад

@vicvera8949 Год назад

@clxuddymusic3658 Год назад

is there a way to make a password auto genirated feature? like say for example if I want the password to be expired after 24 hours

@Nina_Kowsari Год назад

does resetting to factory setting for a computer do the same thing in terms of getting rid of malware/ rootkit as updating to the newest OS?

@theepicduck6922 Год назад

Gonna want a clean wipe if you do anything personal on it: hope you backup your data because you're gonna backup the malware too in all likelihood if you don't know what to look for.

@llllll-ux2lz 2 года назад

Fyi. Does not hurt to change your router’s IP addr. Bad actors know that the first ip addr is typically the first ip addr in the subnet. Imo

@HelpCloud 2 года назад

Not a bad idea, thanks for info!

@TheJFKExperience1963 2 года назад

My home network typically has more devices connected to 5ghz. Does guests on 5ghz affect main 5ghz? I have a triband router mostly 5ghz and 5ghz 2 are used up let's day I set guest network to 2.4 only will that help or do guest 5ghz not effect main

@HelpCloud 2 года назад

The hardware has to process any device regardless of which network they are on, if you have alot of devices and it seems to struggle, a more powerful router may be needed.

@sga1ac3 2 года назад

would performance increase in my main network if i disable a guest network?

@HelpCloud 2 года назад

Depends on how many devices are using your Guest network.

@Nepthu 2 года назад

Do Guest networks need to have a password? I was told they didn't because they're "separate"

@HelpCloud 2 года назад

They don't need one but it is an extra level of security.

@debbiebernhardt3742 2 года назад

@@HelpCloud I’m gonna swap from cable to fiber. I gonna leave the co-ax setup, so I gonna change it to simplify if I ever want to access at a later date. The modem router combo of Motorola works well for internet needs, but I might have my family end service with them, so I plan to allow an unlocked guest network identification with xfinity link, and a private one if xfinity wants to use a secured version.

guest password shows no lock how do I remove it or add password ipad or iphone

@JJFlores197 6 месяцев назад

You'll have to go to your router's settings to change the guest wifi security. How you do this depends on your router. Most routers have an app you can download and manage its settings through the app. Most routers should still have a web interface you can login to and change settings that way.
